It was lovely to chat with you guys. And funny to think that the Irish &amp; Argentinian girls are the ones living here while you are in Denmark! Let us know when you&#39;re back in the midwest. In the meantime I&#39;ll be checking in here.<br /><br />Helen<br /><br />p.s. I had to chuckle that you call me normal - all the people that have known me all my life - or more specifically in my former life before I ran - would strongly disagree :) Also - if you ever want to chat about running stuff my email is hlavin@hotmail.comHelenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06015544399068863167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-12803105213688071592009-07-30T11:34:31.430+02:002009-07-30T11:34:31.430+02:00Me, that&#39;s awesome about JFK!

And now you can all learn SR and Step-Daughter&#39;s name in the above comment (thanks to Tim Roe!).<br /><br />By the way, Tim, we were hoping you&#39;d be running it. Hopefully we&#39;ll catch each other at another race.sea legs girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14782712411873234071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-11381641614986055302009-07-30T03:23:37.960+02:002009-07-30T03:23:37.960+02:00Congrats!

Great race! I wonder how the race would&#39;ve gone if you hadn&#39;t slept in.<br /><br />A lot of runners swear by compression shorts - I made the mistake of buying a pair that has one seam. One very irritating seam.<br />The Garmin does help to let you know where you are in the race - I wore mine for two other reasons. 1) Previous years, I&#39;d record splits at aid stations, but I&#39;d miss a few and never know which ones I missed, so the data was useless. 2) With a heart rate monitor, I could set it to alert me when I was pushing too hard (though I ignored it) and one can set it to have a continuous reading of average heart rate, which was very useful - too bad the battery wouldn&#39;t last for a 100 mile race.<br /><br />Come back to Minnesota soon! We have other races! You still haven&#39;t experienced the Superior Hiking Trail at night...SteveQhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16943650844671498074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834846832861622672.post-75943564451281883392009-07-28T15:15:13.127+02:002009-07-28T15:15:13.127+02:00I&#39;m almost sure you posted the Lorax&#39;s nam...I&#39;m almost sure you posted the Lorax&#39;s name when he was born. . . but maybe not! :p <br /><br />Congrats!!! I started a half-marathon late in December and it was great! The only time I can spend an entire race passing people :p You did awesome and I hope SR feels good too.
